Typewriters?

[der Mouse]

I seem to recall people mentioning, here, typewriters - good old
non-computerized typing machines.

I know someone who is looking for one.  Doesn't need to be fancy;
indeed, fancy is a disadvantage here, or I would have already set said
person up with a computer+printer solution.  "Electric, but not
electronic."  It does need to be functional, though; the idea is to use
it, not put it on display or suchlike.

Anyone got one and willing to let go of it for some reasonable amount?
I can write a cheque for the machine plus shipping and scare up a
shipping address, if there's reason to.  (I phrase it that way because
the place it'd be going is in a very rural area of western Canada, and
I'm not sure what shipping methods would be workable - but I can find
out from the putative recipient.)
